However, they must be very alert because they have the same number of points as four other rivals, so any slip-up could leave them empty-handed. In the meantime, the team has been preparing for this match, a new opportunity to add a trophy to their trophy cabinet, something they have become accustomed to in recent years.
With a capacity of 84,567 spectators, the Monumental is the largest soccer stadium in Argentina and the Americas. In addition to being the home of River Plate, this stadium is also the place where the Argentine National Team plays its home matches. Throughout its history, the Monumental has witnessed major sporting events, including four Copa América finals (in 1946, 1959, 1987 and 2011) and the FIFA World Cup Final in 1978.
